buildings have no height in OSM Buildings

0

Buildings I have added are not displaying in OSM Building even though I include the height/floors data. I am am working in the OSM editor. Can heights only be added using JOSM? Or am I missing a step? I did mark the tag building as yes because the building already there were tagged building yes.

Thanks...

Those buildings were only added in the last couple of days. I'm not familiar with OSM Buildings, but I suspect that they just don't import OSM data changes very quickly. They might only do it weekly, monthly, or on some other schedule. I can't find any information about that schedule on their site, so you might need to contact them directly to ask.

Thanks that makes sense because I have followed all the instructions I could find.
